That idea is probably a non-starter. SAC's limit on a contract for RH, as they sit, is about 10.5M starting salary.
So SAC can't sign RH to the needed size contract to enable the sign-and-trade unless they do some major roster reconstruction. If they do that work, it would be to keep him, I would think, not to swap him.
